A Night in the Life...



Tonight everyone was at home! We were all doing different things but
it was nice to know we were all here.

Mom and Dad - Mom was doing laundry and Dad was watching the Pistons


Melissa was taking the last chemistry test of her High School career!


Hurray! She's finished!


I was making blueberry muffins for our long drive to New Attitude.
We can't wait to go!


Jordan got these b-ball shoes at the mall today. They were a great deal but whenever he gets something new he always debates whether it's worth keeping! Who knows if he'll still have them tomorrow? Speaking of being frugal with money...
This is Jordan's "booty" (as he likes to call it). Getting married, he's pinching the pennies, so tonight he gathered up all his change to trade in for cash.


Josiah played with my mac. He was making a song on garage band. Did I mention he's a great singer? I'll have to post a secret recording of him singing sometime! : )

I am so grateful for such a wonderful family. I have been blessed to have Godly siblings and parents. They spur me on in my walk with the Lord everyday. I love them with all my heart and will never stop loving to be with them!

Sara,
Feelings mutual! We are grateful for so many wonderful neices, nephews, and friends who are like our own kids!
So many fond memories of when you lived with us in Manistee. I was just talking to Jack (at work) about those years and how special they were. Love you soooo much Bear.
Nat, yes, the muffin girl is single..didn't you read the bio of the fam? She's hoping NA will bring more than just a New Attitude...HA! Can a good cousin like you help that along any? Love you, Love you.

I loved the post. Makes me miss being there all the more. I think you should do a weekly "A night in the life..." Maybe we should all take a night and do it. It makes it fun to see whats going on throughout the week. GO PISTONS! I would have been with Uncle Joe last night. Way to go Mel. I really liked the jump. How many times did it take to get the picture on that one? Mag, of course you're making the muffins...and I am sure you gave them all away too. Joey, well you just looked like you needed your behind kicked again. Jord, did you keep the shoes? I can't wait for the wedding. Aunt Jen, Miss you tons. I wish I could come see you for a week. Maybe we can plan a time soon. love you all, and I hope you have a grand time at NA.

I have to tell you that today ,out of nowhere, Reid said "Im gonna do it like Jordan Smith does.." It was funnny, and I have no idea what he was talking about.

The Smith Family said...

Ginger,
Thanks for sharing! You'll have to introduce me to Reid, Clay claims he's one of the cutest little guys at church! Hope you and your family are doing well...I miss hearing about all you young famlies..since Sara and Billie left I'm kinda out of the loop.
